Butterfly Table

By House of Finn Juhl

The Butterfly Table, which Finn Juhl designed in 1949, is a very rare table, which was practically never produced at the time. Together with the iconic Chieftain Chair, Chieftain Sofa and Egyptian Chair, the Butterfly Table was shown at the now famous 1949 Guild Exhibition on behalf of cabinetmaker Niels Vodder.

The very unconventional table looks deceptively delicate and is today produced like the original in solid teak with a leaf in Oregon Pine and a circular brass inlay.

The three-legged, organically shaped coffee table is a very typical Finn Juhl design and a testament to detailed beauty and craftsmanship.

These are the great minds of the modern age – all of whom pursued the elegance of perfect design.
